What to expect
We serve samosas as a pair of golden fried pastries filled with spiced potatoes and peas. They arrive hot and crisp, which makes them a good snack for sharing or a quick bite with chai.
02
Why it works in Ottawa
Samosas are the easiest way into Indian street food for anyone in Ottawa who has not tried it, because the flavours are familiar: potato, peas and warm spice. They also travel well for a short trip, so they are a common order for a picnic or an office lunch.
03
Before you order
Samosas (x2) is $4.99 CAD on our menu.
- An order is a pair of samosas.
- For a heartier plate, ask for Samosa Chaat, where the samosa is crushed and topped with yogurt and chutneys.
- Dunking a samosa in chai is perfectly normal and delicious.
04
What to order with it
A samosa is salty and crisp, so it loves something warm, sweet and milky, or something cool and creamy.
- Kadak Chai, $4.49
- Samosa Chaat, $12.99
- Bun Maska, $3.49
